Music Videos

Shane showed me the new Radiohead video today. But it isn't just a video. It is a concept. Not a concept video, a concept.

a 3D rendering that was made purely with numbers, not images. Try it. Watch it on Google and manipulate it. Pull Thom's face all around. It's very cool.

Then there is this one where a creative video director used 4 mini screens and has them all tied to make one multi-angle video. Not a known band (Electric Eel Shock), just a very interesting concept.

My favorite, however, is the innovations being made by Arcade Fire. "Neon Bible" and "Black Mirror" are dark, disturbing, and brilliant. You'd swear these videos were made by David Fincher (My favorite director - The Game, Fight Club, Se7en, etc.) or David Lynch.

Neon Bible let's you interact with the image in the video and make stuff happen.



For Black Mirror, you can add and remove various instrumental and vocal tracks. Try 1 and 2 to get just the vocals and the percussion. Very cool!
